EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for a dancer, created by the talented artist Charles Ricketts. The artwork, rendered in watercolour over graphite on white paper, measures 39x31 cm and is currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in the University of Oxford, UK. Ricketts' exquisite attention to detail is evident in this piece as he skillfully captures the essence of an orientalist dancer. The vibrant colors and delicate brushstrokes bring life to the theatrical world of dance and evoke a sense of exoticism. The costume itself is a true work of art, with its intricate patterns and flowing fabrics. A beautiful cloak drapes around the dancer's figure, adding an air of mystery and elegance to her presence on stage. Ricketts' design seamlessly blends elements from both Eastern and Western cultures, creating a unique fusion that reflects his artistic vision. This painting not only celebrates the beauty of dance but also highlights Ricketts' mastery as a costume designer. It serves as a testament to his contribution to western art and theatre. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into a world where movement meets fashion - where creativity knows no bounds.
